Sulut Miliki Potensi Kembangkan Perhiasan Batu Permata

MANADO BISNIS – Di Sulut ternyata memiliki potensi perhiasan batu permata yang layak dikembangkan menjadi Industri Kecil Menengah (IKM). Potensi tersebut terdapat di Kabupaten Kepulauan Talaud. 

Demikian dikatakan Kepala Dinas Perindustrian dan Perdagangan (Disperindag) Sulut, Sanny Parengkuan. "Sebagian daerah pegunungan di Kabupaten Talaud mengandung bahan alam yang bisa diolah menjadi batu permata, karena itu ke depan akan dikembangkan IKM penghasil produk perhiasan bermutu tersebut," ujarnya.

Dikatakan Parengkuan, struktur tanah yang ada di beberapa pegunungan Talaud, sangat berpotensi diolah menjadi batu permata, karena itu menjadi perhatian pemerintah propinsi untuk pemberdayaan IKM batu permata.

Ditambahkan Kepala Bidang Fasilitasi Pengembangan IKM, Disperindag Sulut, Nico Rambitan, dasar pengembangan IKM batu permata di Kabupaten Talaud, karena di kawasan itu sebelumnya sudah ada yang menghasilkan produk perhiasan tersebut. "Pemerintah daerah tinggal mengembangkan IKM batu permata di daerah tersebut sehingga menjadi penghasil perhiasan yang patut diperhitungkan di kancah nasional," paparnya.

Pengembangan IKM batu permata, menurut dia, sudah masuk dalam program pemberdayaan IKM Sulut untuk beberapa tahun ke depan. "Program pengembangan IKM batu permata, akan kita masukkan pada program dengan sistem one village one product atau satu wilayah satu produk yang saat ini menjadi fokus pengembangan IKM di Sulut," tandasnya. 

Diharapkan Rambitan, bila program pengembangan IKM batu permata Talaud tersebut berhasil, akan mampu meningkatan taraf hidup masyarakat dan pertumbuhan ekonomi kabupaten perbatasan dengan Filipina tersebut. [yg/mtr]

 

Pemkab Talaud teliti batu permata di 30 pulau kecil
Manado, (Antara Sulut) - Pemerintah Kabupaten Talaud, Provinsi Sulawesi Utara, akan meneliti kekayaaan sumber daya alam batu permata di 30 pulau kecil di daerah tersebut.

"Semua pulau besar sudah dipastikan memiliki kekayaan alam batu permata, saat ini kami akan meneliti 30 pulau kecil, apakah memiliki kandungan cukup banyak," kata Sekretaris Dinas Perindustrian dan Perdagangan (Disperindag) Kabupaten Kepulauan Talaud Derek Gagola di Manado, Rabu.

Derek mengatakan, batu permata merupakan berkah bagi masyarakat Talaud, karena bahan perhiasan tersebut ditemukan di hampir semua kecamatan, terutama di kawasan pulau besar.

Untuk pengembangan kekayaan alam batu permata, kata Derek, pemerintah daerah terus memberdayakan industri kerajinan batu permata yang secara intensif terus memproduksi perhiasan ini.

"Pemerintah daerah merencanakan mengirim beberapa pelaku industri kecil batu permata ke Bandung, tujuannya agar mereka dapat mengolah baik batu permata menjadi perhiasan yang menarik dan indah," kata Derek.

Beberapa program pemberdayaan, kata Derek, terus diupayakan pemerintah daerah di antaranya mendatangkan ahli pengolahan batu permata dari Sukabumi dan Bandung beberapa waktu lalu.

Kepala Bidang Fasilitasi Pengembangan Industri Kecil Menengah(FPIKM) Disperindag Sulut Nico Rambitan mengatakan, karena potensi batu permata Talaud sangat besar, pemerintah provinsi merencanakan produk ini dikembangkan melalui pendekatan "One Village One Product" (OVOP) atau satu desa satu produk.

"Keuntungan pendekatan OVOP, pemerintah akan memperhatikan lebih serius, termasuk pemberdayaan bagi industri kecil menengah (IKM) dalam pengolahnya," kata Nico.

The Minahasa Asul Usul

The Minahasa Asul Usul

Authors: Ryker Marvyn

Indonesia, North Sulawesi, Manado. Native tribes there is Minahasa, and from which the original ancestor Minahasa tribe? according to the story of myth, myth is a sacred story, sacred and do not in any describe. Minahasa tribe ancestor is the Earth Goddess and the god of the sun bear offspring Minahasa, the story is told in the local language and who know only the Walian which is appointed by opo generation - generation. This story is usually told in general at the time of the ceremony Rumages, a story Toar Lumimu'ut. Toar sun god who always brighten and Minahasa Lumimu'ut Earth Goddess who gives fertility to the land of Minahasa and offspring.

Following a short story about Myth Minahasa I can tell the story as more information is confidential and only tell just in the heredity. Because if you told a lot going akan akan difficult questions that are described further, for example Earth Goddess on this native language Astoreth in the Bible. Sayapun can only be told about any such myths.

Then the ancestors of Minahasa at the beginning of the beginning? if the story based on fact?. from opinion Tandean, an expert in language and letter Ancient China, in 1997 came examine Watu Pinawetengan. Through any posts "Min Nan tou" is there in the stone, he said, tou Minahasa King Ming is derived from the land of Mongolia berimigrasi come to Minahasa. Meaning of Min Nan tou are "the descendants of the Sun King of the island. But strange as also known Ming Dynasty are not exactly Mongolia Ming Dynasty is a change that led Yuan Dynasty Mongol nation, by Kubilai Khan.

Based on the opinions of experts, among ALC Baekman and MB Van Der Jack that is derived from the same race Mongolscheplooi correlation with the Japanese and Mongolian is memiki lipit Mongolia. Indeed, the people familiar with the Mongolian way of life, fight with the 1 / 2 the time led by Genghis Khan, Mongol nation and does not spread except to go to Manado. Similarities with the Mongols in the system of belief can be seen on the original religion Minahasa as Mongolian Shamanism. And also led by a directly Walian entered by opo.Shamanism is the religion held firm in heredity by Mongol tribes. Can be seen also in Kalimantan Dayak, and Korea.

However, the Minahasa people are not just purely from the Mongols, but it is a mixture of Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, and known to be descendants of Jews, but more influenced by Christianity. The actual original Minahasa from the Mongols, the intensity of war, and with the famous Jewish kecerdasannya.Indeed, as a Dutch Jew who go to India only up 1 place of worship in Indonesia, please see the synagogues in Tondano

As we know Manado in Indonesia the process spelled out by foreign nations because it spoiled by the Dutch and partners. And the very different characteristics with the Indonesian people in general.
Minahasa tribe divided into nine subsuku:

1. Babontehu
2. Bantik
3. Pasan Ratahan (Tounpakewa)
4. Ponosakan
5. Tonsea
6. Tontemboan
7. Toulour
8. Tonsawang
9. Tombulu

Minahasa contain the name of a noble from the ancestors through musyarawarah with the pledge that all Minahasa tou and his descendants will always be harmonious in the spirit of cultural Sitou Timou Tumou tou. In other words tou Minahasa akan stick together (maesa) wherever he is based with the nature maesa-esaan (mutually united, unanimous), Maleo-leosan (mutual love and pity), magenang-pool (remember each other), malinga-lingaan ( hear each other), masawang-Sawangan (mutual help) and matombo-tomboloan (contradict each other). This is the foundation of unity tou Minahasa from which all values of native cultural traditions Minahasa (Richard Leirissa, Human Minahasa, 1995).

So even though people have Minahasa anywhere in the end will come back together and, at that time will occur at the end of the era, which no one who can. As opo Karema had the mandate for "the offspring of you will live separate by mountains and jungle. However, the willingness to remain united and successful."

He said to the woman, "Because you are a stone's sweat, you kuberi name Lumimuut., Your descendants will live long into the future and grow in beach sand as the sea, however, you must work hard squeeze sweat."
On one day, told Karema beautiful daughter who is handsome south facing and so that it gives the offspring of pregnant. Lumimuut also carry the mother's, but it does not happen anything, Because the south is not successful, Lumimuut been mengadap to the east, west, and north. This very day didak bring results.
Then the ceremony is held again. Lumimuut are facing towards the west are gale blow. The long run, after the ceremony finished, the body becomes Lumimuut others. In fact Lumimuut already pregnant.
During pregnancy, Lumimuut always kept and treated with loving by Karema.When the time comes, Lumimuut any child birth to men who are named Toar.Toar also be given the knowledge and ability as the Karema.
Growth toar body very quickly. Body form large, strong, sturdy, and strong. In the forest wilderness, Toar not and can not be scared by ditaklukkan Anoa, pig deer, and snakes.
After Toar adults, said Karema to Toar and Lumimuut, "Now is time for you both roam circumnavigate the world. I have provided two rods same length. Toar stick to the tree of tuis and stick to Lumimuut made from tree tawaang. If later in the odyssey, you meet someone with both men and women bring a stick like this, bandingkanlah stick with you. If you stick the same length, it means you are still bound to the family. However, if the stick is different and no longer the same length, you can form a household. Hopefully this happens and you will produce offspring. The offspring of you will live separate by mountains and jungle. However, it will have the will to remain united and successful. "
Nuwu (mandate) Karema a stock for Lumimuut and Toar in their odyssey.Mountain, hill and valley, and mounting them hope they lalui. Toar to the north and south Lumimuut. Tuis in the hands of Toar grow long, but tawaang remain in the hands of Lumimuut as usual,
On a full moon night, in the middle of the shine off moonshine, bertemulah Toar with Lumimuut. Appropriate mandate Karema, They compare each rod. In fact, they do not stick together again so that the long marriage ceremony was performed. Stars and moon as witnesses. Tor the implementation of the ceremony looked like a ball of gold. Mount it and then called Lolombulan.
After the wedding ceremony, they also find Karema. However, it was not found.Then, they settled in the mountains a lot of bamboo ditumbuhi tui (small bamboo). Therein they have children and grandchildren. For the descendants of children, twin-nine (semakarua siyouw), two times nine. Birth of offspring was always the sound of whistling birds greeted wala (doyot) as a reliable landmark to obtain the gift of generosity and blessing.
Conclusion:
This story can be classified in the legend. Many of the Minahasa consider this as a story of truth even if to prove the truth is almost impossible. Moral message of the story is we should remember the advice of parents. In addition, although we fair or brave youth, kendaklah we always work hard to be worthy of living.
